billhilly662 piece stock duplicator & wood
I need to find someone to duplicate a shotgun stock for me as well as a sorce for nice blanks. I've given up on trying to do anything with my photo laminated POS and have turned it into a pattern stock. GAC said they could do it but I'm not sure how confident I am what with all I've heard on this forum about them. I'd like to get some resources for wood and folks to duplicate my pattern. I like my little shotgun but it needs a new suit.
Thanks

Thanks for the link. I'm going to call him tomorow. Will he use my pattern? I didn't see anything about shotguns on the site.

For blanks, Dressels.com has a big selection in several types of walnut.

He will do stocks from your pattern. He just did 2 Winchester 9422 stocks for my Dad and I using my stock for the pattern. He has done several stocks for me and they require very little final fitting.
